Microbeads stuck in my pores

I started using this product a few days ago and started breaking out, i brushed it off as the product not agreeing with my skin then i took a closer look and saw the microbeads IN my pimples. I popped a pimple and a microbead came out. breakouts everywhere. Ive never had this problem with a scrub before. Really disappointed i usually love sheamoisture products. Maybe a natural exfoliant, ground walnut shells, sugar, anything really besides plastic microbeads. terrible for the enviroment and terrible for your skin.
I won’t use anything other than this!

Loved using it to wash my face. It felt grainy but wasn’t too rough and it was easy to apply and wash off my face. I used it at night, great to use after getting makeup off

I used this facial scrub for a year maybe once or twice a week when I showered only, and I loved everything about it: the smell, the gentle scrubbing, the consistency. Then, I ran out of my regular soap, so I started using this soap regularly (I was busy and didn't buy my regular face soap). After a few weeks of more regular use, my skin started to break out horribly. My entire forehead was full of even bumps. After researching, some people like me react badly to overuse of coconut oil. It caused a type of acne that is due to fungi on the skin eating the coconut oil (or other oils like this), and reproducing. Same thing could happen on your scalp - dandruff. Yikes! It took me months to get rid of the acne by using salicylic acid on my skin. Now, 10 months later, I am just now recovering and going back to my old skin. It did a number on me. My advice, don't overuse it. I'm afraid to purchase it again now.

Started using this product 6 months ago and was extremely pleased. I enjoyed the product so much that I recommended the product to my family members., After running low I purchased additional bottles. What a change in 6 months!!! As commented by another customer, the product no longer has a thick consistency but poured out in my hand like water. The smell of the black Jamaican soap, the beads, and tea tree oil are no longer present in the product. Please return to the original formula, which consisted of the natural and quality ingredients listed on the packaging but not in the container.

I love this product. Feels great on the skin, and gently exfoliates without causing redness. Has a nice smell to it that isn’t overpowering. Would recommend.

I keep this for when my hormones flair and my acne gets wild and uncontrollable. It really helps to clean and keep the oil at bay without over drying my skin. I can’t say I use this everyday because I feel it would cause my skin to dry out but I use it about 3-4 times a week when i see an abundance of zits or acne in general

This seems to be a nice product for those who want to use more natural facial products. I have combination skin. It worked okay for my skin, but my skin requires more clinical-strength products to stay in order. I’d recommend for someone who has very minimal skin issues.

Noticed my skin was brighter just about a week later. Not lighter but brighter… cleaner. I have a huge beard that covers half of my face so the rest of my face can’t afford to look bad. Never had much acne but my old regimen left my face dry and just didn’t feel clean enough. This did the trick. All I need now is a good moisturizer.
Great exfoliant

I loved this when I used it for day I’m doing long skin care process. Use with spin brush for great result, which allows all other skin care product to absorb into pours/ skin.
Good!

This has helped my pregnancy acne so much. I still get the occasional pimple, but my entire forehead was covered prior to using this. My husband enjoys it too.

It has taken about two tubes of this for me to notice a difference but it has worked to clear up my skin. I only had small breakouts and although they haven’t completely gone away this has helped as well as make my skin softer and evening out my tone a bit . I have sensitive skin with oily tzone and tight dry skin around the exterior of my face l. This has helped balance that out as well and doesn’t feel as tight when I get out of the shower
So sad

I wanted to love this product, as I i the mud mask, the bar soap, and the moisturizer… but I just don’t. Maybe my skin type is just not right for this, although it says for all types on the packaging. I generally have oily skin and the other products from this brand and type, have all worked well for me but this one made me break out like crazy!!! I’m talking big, cystic type pimples all over and it seemed to make my skin even oilier. I would’ve given less stars if I didn’t love the brand and their other products so much. Along with the smell, I love, but this particular product just didn’t do well for me. Definitely seems like it would do better for someone with drier skin! Wish it said that on the packaging!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The SheaMoisture Clarifying Facial Wash & Scrub African Black Soap with Shea Butter is wonderful. After using this product my T-zone is not as dry as usual. It is so easy to use and only takes a few minutes so it is easy to incorporate into my routine.
